The documents submitted to the Welsh Assembly Government in order for the Transport and Works Order to be granted must be made available for public scrutiny to allow for the presentation of objections to the W.A.G. for consideration as part of the granting process.

The Llangollen Railway Trust is applying to the Welsh Ministers under section 6 of the Transport and Works Act 1992 for an Order to give statutory authority for the Trust to extend its existing Llangollen to Carrog railway by constructing and maintaining a new railway from Carrog to Corwen largely constructed on the trackbed of the former Ruabon to Morfa Mawddach railway, together with related works and facilities.

The draft order makes provision as to:
1.    The construction and maintenance of the proposed works, including provisions relating to removal of part of  the former Ruthin to Corwen railway embankment, construction of a new station at Corwen and facilities, access to the works, a level crossing to carry the railway across footpath FP61 to the west of Carrog Station together with provision for the temporary stopping up of part of the said footpath where it crosses the former railway and powers to lop trees overhanging the proposed works..
2.    The sale or lease of the new railway and of the existing railway, and provisions applying the byelaws now in force in relation to the existing railway to the new railway.

This application is made subject to an environmental impact assessment.  It contains a statement that a direction for deemed planning permission is being applied for.

Any objections to, or other representations about, the proposals in the application should be sent to the Welsh Ministers, c/o Transport and Works Act Orders Unit, 9/09 Southside, 105 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6DT, e-mail transportandworksact@dft.gsi.gov.uk.  An objection or representation MUST (i) be received by the Welsh Ministers on or before Thursday 29th October 2009, (ii) be made in writing (whether sent by post or e-mail), (iii) state the grounds of the objection or other representation, (iv) indicate who is making the objection or representation, and (v) give an address to which correspondence relating to the objection or representation may be sent.  (If you are sending your objection or other representation by e-mail, please provide a postal address.)
